I hoped this wasnt something that was gonna bring out the "um actually" crowd. Mad Max wasn't released in the US until 1980.
Superman 2 ain't here. Is that coz it was released in the US in 81 or do you just not like it ? Because when I think of a film from 1980 that's the first that comes to mind.
@@thefan974 also...I've never seen it and don't imagine I would enjoy any of the Reeves movies. I never liked Superman until Man of Steel and those movies are incredibly dated.
It's widely stated amongst fans and movie critics that those films are dated. There's nothing hypocritical about acknowledging that and is a complete misuse of the word. I'm not insulting them by knowing my own taste and making an educated assumption that I won't enjoy them.
@Cody Leach Hardly an educated assumption, especially when the first one is about as much of a revered cult classic as it gets. Ur not acknowledging criticism rather you're being ignorant and ignoring the praise of these films. If you haven't watched any of these films you can't have an opinion on them .
Man this is an awesome list dont pay attention to the "I'm more intelligent " crowd bc they dont come to have a good time they have to "be right" lol Awesome video man!🤘🏻
The Shining will always be my favorite 1980 film, that movie is a masterpiece in my eyes. Kubrick and Nicholson truly created a timeless horror flick.
Also, I would call this my favorite production design of all time, the way Kubrick constructed the hotel and the hedge maze: absolutely brilliant
Mine is Urban Cowboy
This is going to be a great series. The 80s is my favorite decade for movies and music.
You got me a moment with your little Friday the 13th gag, Cody. I actually really like the original film and consider it to be well above a lot of the slashers that followed it, but to each their own. Here's hoping that The Final Chapter will make it on your 1984 list.
🤣
If you do a 1981 list, give “Blow Out” a look. Maybe Travolta’s best 80s performance and De Palma’s tone is perfect. I didn’t see it myself until last year, and can’t believe I put it off so long.
Fun fact: The Fog originally had nothing to do with fog but they had to adapt the film and script because John Carpenter was standing too close to the camera for most of the shots
This is fucking hilarious if true 😂
The Changeling is also based off of a true story about a house that used to be in Denver, Colorado. The house has been torn down since then, but it's still part of Denver's haunted history.
Happy to see that you enjoyed The Changeling! It's so classy and atmospheric, I adore that film.
For some reason i thought you had mentioned this was going to be an idea for next year but I guess I was wrong! What a nice surprise! Thanks for all the content brother! 🤘🤘🤘
10. Urban Cowboy. 9. Airplane. 8. Raging Bull. 7. Ordinary People. 6. Seems like old Times. 5. Dressed to Kill. 4. The Shining. 3. 9 to 5. 2. Caddyshack. 1. My Bodyguard.
Love your show!
"The Changeling" was also awesome! That scene where he comes home after tossing the ball off of the bridge & it comes bouncing down the stairs...Gives me chills every time!
Happy to see Raging Bull on here Cody. That movie doesn't get talked about enough and it's one of Scorsese's best. Great list!
1980 is like a mixture of the rise of blockbuster films and the then existing character driven arc movies that garnered wide release as well as movie studios starting to or comfortably release movies into theaters at wide release during its opening weekend
I’m surprised Caddyshack and Airplane didn’t make the list. For me, they are not only the best comedies of 1980 but the best of all time.
See the movie Used Cars with Kurt Russell. Underrated masterpiece made by the team that made Back To The Future.
A couple of Christoper Reeve movies from 1980 were good Superman 2 and Somewhere in Time
As a kid I loved those 2 films
I didn't like Caddyshack at all and Airplane was fine but I'm not big on spoof comedy.
That’s fine. The best part of your ranking videos is how unpredictable they can get.
Love this idea for a series Cody, keep up the great work. I appreciate the entertainment as always
1. The Empire Strikes Back
2. The Shinning
3. Caddy Shack
4. Mad Max
5. The Fog
6. Alligator
7. Maniac
8. The Changeling

10. Prom Night
You had me for a second there with Friday the 13th 😂
If I take away one thing from this video, it's that your dad had a love for cinema and shared that with you growing up
It’s always a goo day when Cody posts a video

Empire strikes back is not only my favorite movie from 1980 but it's my favorite sequel of all time. I appreciate all the amazing content that you've always and continue to put out. 🤘

Been waiting on a series like this! Let’s goooo
This will be a good theme for your videos! Can't wait til you do 1984
The changeling is underrated!
Great list , I love all the movies up here. One that would be on my list is one that my dad use to watch all the time its Used Cars with Kurt Russell. Its funny as hell, probably my top 5 movies of Kurt Russell's
Great idea for a series, bro. Keep doing this.
Liked hearing you give love to DePalma
Good to see The Changeling getting love. It's currently up on Tubi where I just rewatched it. I wish those crappy James Wan horror movies were half as good.
IMO .
Changeling really is a good, old fashioned ghost story. It's a slow burn but effective .
Motel Hell is one of the best horror films ever. This was a great year for horror, The Shining, Friday the 13th, The Changeling, The Fog, Motel Hell, Dress to Kill, Ms. 45, Maniac, The Boogeyman, some of the best horror movies period.
The changeling is awesome. Creepy as fuck. Welcome to the party :)
Yeah dude Changeling is awesome!
The Changeling and The Fog are probably my favorite ghost flicks of all time; and they both came out in 1980!
Great list Cory. We share some of those films. Im Scratching my head on Prom night though. It has its own style, is fun, but top ten? Hmm.
1. Empire strikes back
2. Dressed to Kill
3. Blues Bros.
4. Airplane!

I haven't watched some of these movies in so long

Omg The Changeling that traumatized and scaried me as a kid l refuse to watch it ever again lol
New fan to you, but you’re analysis of Raging Bull, you sold me there. Love that you’re a real fan of films. Means a lot, super enjoy your content. Don’t change.
Thank you
I can’t wait until 1984 movies, a lot of good movies that year.
Stir Crazy with Richard Pryor & Gene Wilder was another super fun movie from 1980.
That one and Silver Streak (1976) are Pryor/Wilder comedy magic for sure.
@@LarryFleetwood8675 I'd never heard of Silver Streak. Will have to check that one out, thanks.

1: The Shinning
2: Blues Brothers

The Shining, The Fog, The Changeling, Friday the 13th, The Children, Dressed to Kill, Urban Cowboy, Prom Night, Terror Train, Motel Hell, The Elephant Man , The Big Red One, The Island, Popeye. Ordinary People, Empire Strikes Back, Caddyshack, Xanadu, Airplane!, Coal Mkner's Daughter, Brubaker. Just to name a few as the best, favorites (or highly entertaining, if all else) out of 1980.

Forgot about Fade to Black...👍
Glad to see The Changeling on your list. I have always liked this movie. Great list
Was a fun watch, appreciated hope you have a great week Cody
Recommendations for ' 81 ? Quest for Fire, Outland and Taps
Good list lot of classics
The Shining was the best film in 1980s and one of the best of all time, timeless classic and a lot scarier than most movies ever due to the setting and the actors being so damn good.
Awww, man, I love the "Friday the 13th" joke😂🤣😂. I'm thinking, no way that's number 1. Lol
As strange as it sounds, my husband and I saw The Elephant Man on our first date in late 1980. Not a great one for a date night movie but it worked for us. Still married❤
I swear, when i saw Friday the 13th, i literally voiced 'what, no Empire'? You had me for a few seconds, nice. What gets me is that for all the movies ive seen in my life, and ive seen more than my fair share, theres still so many ive never seen. Thats half the movies on this years list! Anyway, bring on 1981!
Empire Strikes Back is my favorite movie of 1980.
Still mine in 2022 😂
Surprised Superman 2 didn't make the cut. Such a classic.
My top 10 of 1980
1. The Shining
2. Empire Strike back
3. The Fog
4. Raging bull
5.The elephant man
6. Dressed to kill
7. Caddyshack
8. Superman 2
9. Airplane
10. Friday the 13th
9.
You got me on the Friday the 13th joke.
Really looking forward to this whole series. I need to catch up on a lot of 80's movies, and this will help me give property to some of them
I can't argue with your choices here. The Changeling scared the shit out of me one afternoon. I think it was on Dr. Paul Bearer's Creature Feature show that we used to get in Florida.
Anyway, without rewatching any films and going on my memory this would be my top 10:
10. The Changeling
9. Popeye
8. Airplane
7. The Elephant Man
6. Flash Gordon
5. Caddyshack
4. Blues Brothers
3. Raging Bull
2. Empire Strikes Back
1. The Shining
Honorable Mentions: Alligator, Friday the 13th (I knew that was BS! haha), Super Fuzz
Motel Hell my dad took us to see this in the theater. I was 4
I guess because I saw Road Warrior first I had a hard time loving the original Mad Max and yes I LOVE Thunder Dome! 😆
Thunder Dome was the first one I saw first out of franchise
My own favourite theory about The Shining is that you can also view it as a western.
Awesome video Cody! The Shining is my all-time favorite horror movie and Jack Nicholson was just brilliant in that film! I need to make a top movies of the decade list myself!
Cody, great top 10! Return of the Jedi was my favorite back in the day but now Empire takes that spot. The movie has aged like fine wine.
THANK YOU FOR RELEASING SO MUCH CONTENT LATELY
A pretty solid list here Cody. I've seen and own most of these movies except The Elephant Man. I've tried to watch it several times and just can't get through it. It's not often that a movie profoundly disturbs me, but this one does it. The cruelty and inhumanity imposed upon John Merrick is just heart breaking. Maybe because it's a true story is why I can't handle it. Masterful film making to be sure, but one that I have no desire to sit through.
Raging Bull is the movie where I believe the Robert De Niro that we now nowadays ( you know brash, scenery stealing, tough guy attitude) was born. Fantastic performance and well deserving of his Oscar
I finally saw that movie this year an I was born in 1980 lol
1. The shining
2. Coal miners daughter
3. Raging bull
4. Cruising
5. Caddyshack
6. Empire strikes back
7. Friday the 13th
8. Prom night
9. Dressed to kill
10. The bodyguard
Btw Cinderella man is the greatest boxing movie ever made. Cody gotta give us a top 10 for that lol
Great list!
Great year. The Fog, The Changeling, the Shining would probably top my list. Gotta rewatch alot from that year such as elephant man. I'd probably put Death Ship, F13, and Alligator on there to. Cannibal Holocaust for being extremely memorable
I need that trick or treat shirt right now
Great idea for a series
Thanks for the great video.
Didn't expect to see a David Lynch movie on your list but cool.
Empire Strikes Back
Caddyshack
Airplane!
The Shining
Dressed To Kill
Mad Max
If you like The Changeling, I think you'll like Ghost Story. If you haven't seen it, check it out
I love this idea! Your favorites of every year or decade sound very interesting
Great vid, gotta catch up on Dressed to Kill and The Changeling for sure. Would've included Blues Brothers, Maniac and the Swedish classic Sällskapsresan myself lol
Empire strikes back is my favorite movie of all time I love that movie to death
Congrats on 100K, Cody!
Side note... I can't remember which video it was on, but within the past 2 months... you had a different guitar-based opening theme for one of your videos. I kinda liked it. :)
Motel Hell iiconic
3 fav movies The Lost Boys and Fright Night and the Fog watched them trillions of times.
Thanks for the changeling I checked it out right after this review...
Can't believe I never heard of that one
Great movie
Carpenters movies get better with time. I hated The Fog when I 1st saw it but now its one of my favorites. I would have Caddyshack & Airplane on my list.
Motel Hell is a fun movie. Hypnotizing the people planted in the earth is awesome. Great finale too.
The Shining and The Blues Brothers 🙌
Great list! The Changeling is definitely a hidden gem. For all you youngins’ who’ve never seen it, It’s currently FREE on Tubi. 🍿🥳🍿🥳🍿
Cody! What a great Idea and Video! Haven't seen all of the movies but now i am going to order some!
20:41 that caught me off guard!
The Stunt Man (1980) starring Peter O'Toole is an interesting, entertaining Film that is worth watching, if you haven't already done so..
I first didn’t like the Shining because it was so different from the book. I had to rewatch it and let go of the book. Realize the book is King’s vision and this movie is Kubrick’s vision. That helped me appreciate the movie more. Although I wish Kubrick’s vision of Wendy was more like King’s vision of Wendy.
I like Mad Max as much as the second one, maybe even more.
Love the Trick Or Treat tshirt!! I worked in a theater when it opened!!! Great FASTWAY soundtrack!!
